Ranchi: National carrier Indian will operate a Calcutta-Ranchi-Delhi special flight on Friday to meet the rush of passengers.
A 145-seater Airbus—A320 — will be the second such special flight between Calcutta, Ranchi and Delhi in less than a month.
The last special flight was operated during Chhath, on October 28.
